MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Rivers v. Becerra, Case No.: 3:20-CV-0580 JLS (AHG) (S.D. Cal. 2020):

[is] . . . a context-specific task that requires the reviewing court to draw on its judicial experience and common sense." Id. The "mere possibility of misconduct" or "unadorned, the defendant-unlawfully-harmed me accusation[s]" fall short of meeting this plausibility standard. Id.; see also Moss v. U.S. Secret Service, 572 F.3d 962, 969 (9th Cir. 2009).
